Push Ubiquiti AP to Custom Cloud Controller

Point your AP's to your cloud controller:

  • ssh into the AP and login.  If it's never been configured on a controller before, the login is ubnt for username and password.  If it has, it's the root information of whatever controller was connected to it.  
  • Access the MCA CLI by typing mca-cli.
  • The next part you do TWICE:
    Type the command: set-inform http://ip-or-address-of-controller:8080/inform
  • Go into your controller software and in about a minute you should see the AP waiting to be adopted.  Once it is adopted, go back to the ssh session and run set-inform http://ip-or-address-of-controller:8080/inform again. 
That's it.  If you have auto-upgrade turned on in settings in the controller, it will automatically upgrade and and provision the APs rebooting them a 1-2 times on their own.
